Duckduck Turbocharged January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 http://www.todayonline.com/voices/noisy-luxury-sports-cars-bad-illegally-modified-vehicles "I live in the River Valley neighbourhood. On several occasions, my family has been awoken by the sound of motor-revving as a sports car speeds along in the wee hours. I understand that stock models of luxury sports cars sold here can reach ear-splitting levels even without illegal modifications. It is said on some websites that a Ferrari or Lamborghini can reach up to 90 or 100 decibels. Why are the authorities cracking down only on illegal modifications when luxury sports cars sold here can generate the same or even higher noise levels? Are these car owners given a free pass, essentially?" ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sp4wn Turbocharged January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 if the car comes as-is and it's loud, means its approved by govt already what. ear-splitting my butt la ... like that those who stay landed next to those supercar owners will be deaf by now. not a very smart letter writer ... i seldom hear these "high revving" cars, especially since there's so many bloody traffic lights and jaywalking pedestrians to look out for. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vhtfhwlego Supercharged January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 Loud exhuast cars are safer cars. Reason, I rev my car at little india, all make way for me. Many hear my exhaust and didn't dash across the road. Try doing it in a Nissan leaf. Sure knock down people as the car is so quiet. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viceroymenthol 6th Gear January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 I live in that neighbourhood also. Please lah those loud exhausts with the big "waoooooh waooooooh" sound wailing up and down the Valley are definitely not stock. This is what a stock Ferrari exhaust sounds like. Very lame one. And just last week some of us guys heard a new Maserati QP with stock exhaust. It was very lame and quiet, as some bros here can attest to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
